I had calamari which I nearly broke my tooth on. Worst I’ve even had. It was so overcooked I couldn’t put my fork in to cut it… it just shattered into 2. Absolutely no taste or texture to the actual calamari. Wasn’t served with lemon… I had to ask for some. Not offered so we asked for salt and pepper - none came so we went and got it ourselves. Then I had chicken and ham penne pasta which was nice but no offer of Parmesan or black pepper etc which I think is poor. Cleared 5 out of the 6 plates but forgot about the last one and left it there for another half hour. Not great. I am unlikely to return.

Accidentally discovered this place with two hungry toddlers on a Saturday evening. What a find! Excellent fresh authentic pizza made in front of you. Kids can roll out their own dough (nice touch). Nice staff and atmosphere. Reasonable prices compared to the outrageous causal dining chain restaurants. 100% will visit again.

My friend and I visited after being told it was nice. It was diabolical. Went in and sat down tried to order drinks but everything we asked for they didn't have. We got our starter which was nothing to right home about. We didn't stay for our main meal. They were more interested in the Uber Eats side of the business. Three or 4 deliveries were also being made up whilst we were eating. People coming and going all the time. We went somewhere else and the service was faultless

This place is run by the best pizza chef about.! We visit once a week and the fresh pizzas made in front of your eyes are the best ever! Plus for children they can make their own pizza from scratch for only £4.95. My daughter loves rolling out the dough and choosing her own toppings. Great selection of sides and drinks on tap! Also price is very cheap! Well done 🤌🏻

Went for dinner last week. It was SO cold you could see your breath in the restaurant. Had to wear thick coat. Knife almost stuck to your hand. Food got cold within minutes of arrival. Dude, if your heating breaks or you chose not to turn it on you should really tell people - because it was actually really unpleasant waiting for our food. Almost like sitting outside. Not exaggerating - it was Really unpleasant. All it takes is some communication with your customers. Like hey sorry, heat is off it is going to be cold if you want to eat here. That would be fine as long as you know when you sit down and order….
